Rally for Habeas today, anywhere


Today is the ACLU’s Day of Action to Restore Law and Justice. Activists will gather in Washington, DC to rally and lobby to fix the Military Commissions Act and to restore Habeas Corpus.

If (like me) you can’t make it to DC for the main event, come to a simultaneous rally in Second Life!

Tuesday June 26, 2007 8:00 AM to 10:30 PM SLT (Pacific Time), concurrently in Second Life and in Washington DC!

T-shirts and signs at MoJo Fields [Second Life: Mojo Fields (86, 88, 519)], and then teleport to the rally at the Washington Mall in Second Life, where you can also watch a live webcast of ACLU’s Day of Action from Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C.

    I’m “in-world” at the staging area now. Got my sign and t-shirt. I’ve also discovered there’s a sign-up page at http://www.aclu.org/slsignup although it’s not clear what thay are doing with that info. Maybe to count the number of SL participants?

    Looks like the event isn’t actually starting until noon EDT, so there’s plenty of time to join in.
